I guess I`m just paranoid
You are not paranoid. Just a little behind on the info. Read "The global war on your guns" by Wayne LaPierre and then realize that was published in 2006. All of this info is important to know b/c the UN, IANSA, and all other anti-gun NGOs are still up to the same old tricks. We as americans need to stay on top of things
AND SUPPORT THE NRA TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY!!!!! I know that a lot of guys hate how the NRA is constantly pressuring for more money but that is what they have to do to keep up with the anti's funding. If you can not send cash then don't. But just signing up as a yearly member does help out. You can also request for the money letters to stop and then just sit back and enjoy the fact that you helped support our freedom fighters while they supplied you with some great reading material. The NRA is our nations oldest and strongest human rights organization and if you enjoy being free then you should be a member. Please put your differences aside guys/gals and join the NRA! Thanks!
